We here at the Los Angeles Figure Skating Club are fortunate to have had and continue to have some very gracious and wonderful champions in the history of our club. Not the least of these is our very own RICHARD DWYER, “Mr. Debonair”. He recently graced the cover of SKATING magazine. Congratulations to Richard. He is truly one of a kind and how lucky are we to call him one of our own? Always gracious. Always supportive of all our skaters. Always debonaire! GO RICHARD!!!

U.S. Figure Skating Club Webinar – Explanation of the Judging Systems
Join us for a webinar on Sep 17, 2015 at 5:00 PM PDT.

Have you ever looked at the results posted at a competition and wondered what they mean? What are the judges really looking for when they score a skater?
Join us on Thursday, September 17th, at 8pm eastern/7pm central/6pm mountain and 5 pm pacific, to learn more about the two judging systems used for competitions – 6.0 scoring and IJS. A national level judge and national level accountant will explain the differences between each system and the logic behind the scoring and judging criteria.
